Está ubicado sobre la costa de la provincia vasca de Guipúzcoa, que se encuentra bañada por el bravo Mar Cantábrico. Es un pueblo muy tranquilo, con una hermosa playa y un importante puerto pesquero; allí nació el modisto Cristóbal Balenciaga y el famoso marino Sebastián El Cano, en cuyo monumento encontramos una placa de bronce de nuestros marinos de la Fragata Libertad. La característica sobresaliente de Getaria es "el ratón", una pequeña península que termina en el monte de San Antón y que recibe dicho nombre por su peculiar forma.

Getaría Lighthouse
Iturregi is situated 2 kilometers away from Getaria, a small fishing village of the Basque coast, located 20 kilometers from San Sebastián and 60 kilometers from Bilbao. Surrounded by vineyards with breathtaking views of the Getaria lighthouse (known as “Ratón de Getaria”) and the Basque coast, Iturregi offers guests a space full of peace and tranquillity in a natural environment.
Think you could probably also use it in the original Spanish form as well.

Spanish term (edited):
ratón de Getaria
the rock called the _ratón_ or "mouse" of Getaria, because of its striking shape.
Long-winded, I know - but I can't think of anything snappier!
